(Financial Times-UK) Raya Jalabi - Hand-held walkie-talkies and other wireless communication devices used by Hizbullah were detonated across Lebanon on Wednesday, killing at least nine people and injuring more than 300. Explosions took place, including from hand-held radios, in southern Beirut, Tyre, Nabatiyeh, Hermel and the Bekaa Valley, as well as in scattered villages and towns in the south, all areas with a heavy Hizbullah presence. Images circulated on social media for the second day running, showing fire-damaged cars and motorbikes, homes and shops ablaze, and people being rushed to hospitals in ambulances.
